Template:Infobox brickfilm old Words of Wisdom is a 2003 slice of life brickfilm by Chris Salt. It follows the story of Mike, who is making a stop-motion movie. It was an entry to the Brickfilms.com Words of Wisdom Contest, winning the prize for the Best Theme category and placing second overall.[1][2]
Plot
Mike quietly works on his stop-motion film. Geoff walks in and asks about Mike's activities. Mike explains that he's making a stop-motion film, and it will probably take a while to make. Geoff leaves and Mike continues working. Eventually Mike's other roommate Rod walks in, nude and carrying a paddle and an oil can. Rod quickly excuses himself.
Hours pass, and Geoff returns, suggesting that Mike do something "more productive." Mike shows Geoff his nearly-finished film, which consists of one guy throwing something at another guy and then falling over. Geoff says Mike should get a life, then leaves. The film ends with a quote by Bertrand Russell: "Time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time."[3]
